Audi Q5 / Mercedes M-class / Volkswagen Touareg: CAR ADVICE NEEDED.

Baines, you're a cynic. The Mrs. is buying the car with her own money because she likes shiny things - I have a strong aversion to automatics so by default I would not buy any of the above, even if I could afford one. I'm just hoping for some input from anyone who's driven any of the above, so that I can divert her away from wasting more money than she has to.

Many thanks to Harry, P66 and Ralphie for their contributions.

Show her the fuel bills and point out it could be getting spent on other stuff.

I have already mentioned this. Her reply was "I want one because they look pretty. And it's my money so sod off."

I'm strictly on damage limitation here, trying to ensure that she gets the best of a bad bunch, if that makes sense?

I don't get the It's My Money Bit, we've never done that as we are in a relationship together so everything is shared. Your obviously swimming in the stuff though if her money can fund a 4wd so disregard the fuel bit.
 
Had a Merc Ml 350, luxury finish. Comfy car, good in snow & ice. Wouldn't use it as an off roader. Not good wading ( which killed mine ). I would consider it if the price was right.
